I thought I'd upload this screenshot of the place we kept getting stuck at spawn during round-based teamplay tonight. I'm sure the dev team already knows about this but I didn't see anything in the forums. Red is well aware of it, since I whined loudly about it.

"Someone's always waiting" indeed.

Yep. That's on the "to do" list for the next patch.

Thanks for posting this. Bad placed spawnpoints are really annoying. I managed to set a few spawnpoints directly into botclips since I turned them off for visibility reasons.

Ah ... We need to write a Radiant plugin that checks whether entities are placed inside other brushes ...

That would be really really useful!! Probably would cause radiant crash along with all our unsaved work!! lol

Maybe it would be easier to do in the code, i.e. check wether a spawnpoint is inside a solid brush and if so, select another one.

Well, placing bad spawn points is the mappers fault. If a spawn point is unusable the map should be recompiled. If we could have a Radiant plug-in that checked if the spawn points are inside another brush it should solve it.
